    The front camera will need to be repositioned and additional holes will need to be drilled for the two corner sensors.

    I know as I have just had this done.

      I have a 2016 Kakadu and have done the roo Bar (ECB) and suspension lift (Caloffroad) and both are awesome.

      If you send me an email address if will flick you some pictures.

      Cheers

        PS: ARB will only do the standard mods and the Kakadu is far from a standard vehicle. \

        Cheers.

          Sorry to jump in here guys, but hopefully this helps

          I have been studying the arb price list and on page 297 has the wording
          "Models with the front centre camera require repositioning of the control box, additional labour (LAB) charges may be incurred"

          So they are fully aware of it, but you may be charged extra labour to reposition the camera.

          I have a VX, so luckily not an issue for me, but with the headlamp washers, I have seen the ARB bars in person, and the window washers are replaced to being on the actual bar itself, so ARB (or dealers) will be fully aware of this also.

          Also - you can download the ARB price list from the ARB website, bottom right hand (I think) side. and from page 297-303 are accessories for the 150

            Also a Kakadu owner (2015). I am having trouble getting suppliers to confirm that any bullbar will not adversely affect the active cruise control / collision detection sensors. My preference is the AFN bar but the suppliers in Perth advised me that it was untested on the Kakadu and they could not guarantee the sensors would still work. I think ARB are taking a similar line and recommend fitting their plastic one, and that's not happening.

                2013 TJM bar by the way. Drilled a hole in the bar, lengthen the camera wires, not to difficult. Radar cruise works as per usual with the bar and the spotties where they are.

                  That control box refers to the winch control box. I thought the same thing but then I spoke to a few ARB guys at the latest 4x4 show (handy because Toyota set up their show right across from ARB with a Kakadu in close proximity ) and they said the winch control box is mounted right in front of the camera and radar sensor, but they can move it to inside the bumper.

                    ARB and TJM both have a press release that states that their bars do not affect the radar cruise control, but it is so difficult to find that I have been really struggling to find it again. The AFN bars look perfect, but there is no information about how they affect anything on the Kakadus. I would be willing to try one on my rig, but not willing to buy one until I know it is safe

                      I will do this after the new car warranty expires, just to make life simple
